Description
These easy, no-bake Chocolate Strawberry Yogurt Clusters combine sweet strawberries, creamy Greek yogurt, and a snappy chocolate shell for a festive treat perfect for Valentine’s Day or any occasion. Quick to make and customizable, they’re healthier than most holiday desserts and kid-friendly too.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups diced strawberries (about 200g)
- 1 cup Greek yogurt (full-fat or 2%, plain or vanilla)
- 2–3 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup chocolate chips or chopped chocolate (dark, milk, or semi-sweet; about 170g)
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil (optional)
- Sprinkles or sea salt (optional)
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Dice strawberries into 1/4-inch cubes and pat dry with paper towels.
- In a large mixing bowl, stir together Greek yogurt, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and diced strawberries. Taste and adjust sweetness if needed.
- Drop tablespoon-sized mounds of the mixture onto the parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them apart. You should get about 14-16 clusters.
- Freeze clusters for 20-30 minutes, until solid to the touch.
- Place chocolate chips and coconut oil (if using) in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 20-second bursts, stirring after each, until smooth and glossy. Alternatively, melt over a double boiler.
- Remove clusters from the freezer. Using a fork or fingers, dip each cluster into melted chocolate, turning to coat. Let excess drip off, then place back on parchment. Optionally, drizzle extra chocolate or sprinkle with festive sprinkles/sea salt.
- Return clusters to the freezer for 15 minutes, until chocolate is set.
- Serve cold, straight from the freezer, or store in an airtight container.
Notes
Pat strawberries dry to avoid icy clusters. Use thick Greek yogurt for best results; strain regular yogurt if needed. Work quickly when dipping clusters in chocolate, especially in a warm kitchen. Customize with different fruits, nuts, or sprinkles. Store in the freezer for up to 3 weeks or in the fridge for up to 5 days. For dairy-free, use coconut yogurt and dairy-free chocolate chips.
